Cybersecurity
The Cybersecurity minor program will equip students with.the necessary skills to pursue a career with additional Cybersecurity knowledge/skills needed in various industries. For example, healthcare records represent an extremely attractive target for cyber criminals, containing as they do various bits of sensitive information like Social Security numbers all in one place. The challenge for professionals working in the healthcare industry is that they just improve data protection without impeding healthcare professionals' speedy access to potentially life-saving patient information.
